Why do we like certain types of music? Is it just preference, or is something deeper happening in our brains and bodies?
In this episode, Ashley dives into music psychology and the idea of vibrational memory. We explore why certain songs instantly transport you back to a specific moment in time. We also discuss how music may be tied to evolutionary psychology, including why some sounds feel safe, powerful, or even threatening.
We break down why concerts feel so intense and why live music hits differently. It is not just the sound. It is the shared energy of the crowd, the performer, and the collective experience that amplifies everything.
Plus, we wrap things up with a chaotic game of Finish the Lyric, where we confidently and sometimes incorrectly sing our hearts out.
If you have ever gotten chills from a song or wondered why your music taste feels so personal, this episode might completely change the way you experience music.
